Solution
The text is written in English. The grammatically correct sentences are: "In the 16th century when tens of thousands of hungry Scots migrated to Poland looking for work, the names of some became Polonised." and "Macleod became Machlejd; Chalmers, Czarmas; and Ramsay, Ramzy." The phrase "perhaps the names will revert back" is incorrect because "revert" already means to return to a previous state, so "back" is redundant.
